BibRave voted The Eau Claire Half Marathon in the Top 5 Half Marathons in the US! The Half Marathon course focuses on the beauty of our city, you will cross over eight bridges as you make your way through 13.1 miles of residential and business neighborhoods, along with the Blugold Mile on UW-Eau Claire’s campus.
All participants will receive their race shirt at packet pick-up. Upon completion, runners will receive a finisher’s medal to commemorate their accomplishment at the Eau Claire Half Marathon.
Our half marathon course is very spectator-friendly. Without leaving the Phoenix Park area, family, friends and community members can easily cheer runners on at the start, when they loop back (mile 2-3), on Barstow Street (check out the Barstow Block Party) and as they finish on Graham Avenue.
